About this listen
A new short story from award-winning author Ann Cleeves
Ann Cleeves, the Sunday Times number one best-selling and award-winning author of the Vera, Shetland and Two Rivers series, returns with a darkly delicious short story featuring DI Matthew Venn, as featured on ITV's The Long Call. This enthralling tale also features an exclusive extract from the 10th Vera Stanhope novel The Rising Tide publishing later this year.
It was winter. Cold and clear, a different sort of day for this coast where the westerly winds usually blew rain and cloud.
Detective Inspector Matthew Venn is standing by his kitchen window when he first spots them. Two young girls, facing away from him, seemingly staring towards something in the distance. They are holding hands, and they are alone.
Though not a natural with children, Matthew knows he must find out why the girls are here, on a school day, unsupervised. And so he meets Olivia and Imogen, a pair of sisters whose secrets Matthew must uncover if he hopes to get them home.
The Long Call and The Heron's Cry, the first two novels in the Two Rivers series, featuring Matthew Venn, are available now.

waste of my time and credit
had I paid better attention I would have totally skipped this book in the series. I bought it, got ready for my 4 hr drive only to be disappointed that it was one chapter. My fault totally for not reading the description better.

Short story leaves you flat
I am an Ann Cleeves fan. I thought this was the next Mathew Venn book but it is just a teaser. It seems like the beginning of a new novel but then it stops just when it could get interesting. It doesn’t have much of a story arc. It seems unfinished
